School of Earth Literacy

Fostering a viable and hopeful future for our planet

Wellbeing of the Earth

For us to flourish, the earth must also flourish. We cannot flourish as healthy humans on a toxic planet.

We are deeply interconnected with the Earth and the web of life. The Earth is the primary and humans are derivative. There is no such thing as a human community without an earth community.

A hopeful future depends on our developing a mutually beneficial relationship and rapport with the natural world.

Great Work

This course explores how we can make a transition from a period of human devastation of the Earth to one in which we will recognize and celebrate the sacredness of all creation and find our place within the web of life.
